Following yesterdays massive buy of nearly 18,000 Bitcoin, Strategy Inc. now holds over 3.5% of the total Bitcoin supply in circulation. According to data from Bitcointreasuries.net, the company controls 738,731 BTC, representing approximately 3.5% of Bitcoin's total supply cap of 21 million coins. Strategy's holdings now account for over 60% of the 1,155,986 BTC held across all tracked public companies worldwide, underscoring its unparalleled dominance in corporate Bitcoin ownership.
This achievement cements Strategy's role as the leading institutional accumulator of Bitcoin, turning the company into a de facto proxy for Bitcoin in public equity markets. Its treasury strategy—treating Bitcoin as the primary reserve asset—has consistently outpaced peers in both scale and conviction.
Tracing back, Strategy's Bitcoin journey has been nothing short of meteoric. The company crossed the 3% threshold of Bitcoin's total supply on August 25, 2025, when founder and chairman Michael Saylor announced the acquisition of 3,081 BTC for $356.9 million, pushing holdings to 632,457 BTC
One of the engines powering this relentless accumulation is Strategy's perpetual preferred stock, STRC (known as "Stretch"), which has experienced a remarkable surge in demand and trading activity. In the most recent period, the company raised $377.1 million by issuing 3,776,205 STRC shares, with proceeds directly funding around 5,315 BTC—about 30% of the 17,994 BTC acquired. Trading volumes have soared, including more than 2 million shares traded (exceeding $200 million in value) on March 3, 2026, and nearly 2.9 million shares with close to $300 million in dollar volume around March 9. STRC trades near its $100 par value and currently offers an 11.5% annualized monthly dividend yield, attracting investors who favor consistent income over the direct volatility of Bitcoin.
In comments to BitcoinTreasuries.net, Strategy's Bitcoin Strategy Manager Chaitanya Jain stated, "This is only going to accelerate as STRC continues to trade in its target range between $99–$101 and bitcoin price recovers."
Today, with holdings valued in the tens of billions and representing the lion's share of corporate treasuries, Strategy continues to set the pace for Bitcoin integration among public companies. While others have followed suit on a smaller scale, few can replicate its relentless execution or sheer size. As Bitcoin's fixed supply becomes increasingly apparent—with over 95% already mined—Strategy's commanding position highlights its central role in the ongoing shift toward digital assets as a legitimate store of value.
The firm's approach has transformed perceptions of corporate treasury management, demonstrating how a single asset can serve as a powerful counterweight to traditional fiat exposure. Strategy's trajectory illustrates Bitcoin's growing acceptance as a strategic reserve. With each acquisition, the company reinforces its conviction in Bitcoin's scarcity-driven value proposition in an era of persistent monetary expansion. As institutional interest continues to build, Strategy remains at the forefront, showcasing the potential of Bitcoin as a foundational element of modern corporate finance.
